Day 153: Zumba

This morning I had to plug my phone in to the laptop to add a song, but it changed my whole playlist.  Luckily, I had a feeling it might, so I wrote down all my songs for class in order, so I just had to adjust it a bit once I unplugged it.

Zumba was great.  I only had five people, but that's about usual for a Thursday.  The time is weird, so there are never many people there.  I wouldn't go to a 0940 class except for the fact that it's "free" and I need to exercise.

I had a lot of fun and the girls did great, considering most everything was new to them!

I got home, showered, took care of Eis and got her to nap for a little bit.  Then we got ready and went to see grandma at her school.

I didn't tell her we were coming.  We just showed up and on our way to her classroom, everyone gushed at how adorable Eisley is.  We even ran into m OB, Dr. A, who said how much Eis looks like her daddy.  We hung out in my mom's classroom for a little bit and I changed two diapers while we were there.

Finally, we left and went to the mall, since Macy's was having a big sale and baby stuff was on sale, too.  We got her a number of wintery jammies.  Then we stopped by Express so I could try on that leather jacket -- it just didn't fit right and wasn't exactly what I wanted.  After that, we were heading to Nordstrom and ran into a store called Children's Place and found some super cute stuff and decent prices, so we got Eis a fleece jacket and a furry vest -- they're adorable.

In Nordstrom, I ran into a friend from Hyline.  She has a one year old son and she looks amazing, but she always looked amazing -- one of those naturally slender women.  We chatted for a bit and she loved Eis, who was being great and not fussing.

After we left the mall, we stopped by Walgreens where I got my dad a birthday card, and picked up a couple other things, then we headed home.

After dinner, I worked on the stockings.  I finished putting the fuzzy tops on and started making the decoration to go on them.  Sadly, after I finish these 20, I have 20 more to make!  Yikes!

I'm trying to get Eisley to sleep in her crib -- we'll see how she does.  I've fixed the boppy into a thing to help prop her up how she likes.

On another note, I'm hoping she'll potty train early, otherwise we'll go broke on diapers!  Supposedly, babies go through 8-12 diapers a day.  She goes through THREE after almost every feeding!  

1100: 3 diapers
1400: 3 diapers
1700: 3 diapers
2000: 3 diapers
2300: 3 diapers
0400: 1 diaper
0700: 1 diaper
0900: 1 diaper

That's EIGHTEEN diapers a day.  I am buying a box of 264, which costs $50 and it takes me about 2 weeks to go through that.  Ugh.  Beyond being expensive, it's just a pain to have to change diapers that often.

My dad said, "But you change her every time she's even a little bit wet."  However, it's not that I want to change her; she cries and fusses when she's even a little bit wet!  I can't let her just cry until she pees enough to make it worthwhile...
